I too bought the new Ipad and love it. What I don’t understand is why people have to have 4G??? Everywhere is wifi-why waste the money???

Comment on Rebel. Icon. Genius. by Katy

You missed one. In 1999, when you sealed the deal on passing Apple obsession down a generation by presenting your 12 year old daughter with a blueberry iBook. Still possibly the greatest gift I have ever received. At least in part because my previous exposure to your love of all things Apple gave the moment a feeling of truly having a torch passed; that my dad wanted to share with me something he genuinely loved. I’m so very sorry that you have lost a hero today, Dad, but know that you are one in your own right to me.

Well, uh, the original CompuServe (aka Micronet) was cooler than anything. For one brief moment in time. And, uh, the Dartmouth Time Sharing System (DTSS) before that, was, how you say, sui generis! For one other brief moment in time. Before I drown completely awash in geezerdom (too late?), I leave you with this terminal window, ready to take you into the past.

Well, if it's magical and tablet-ly, here are a few quick notes for someone getting settled inside a new iPad.

Life intrudes, Kirk, and sometimes the messages etc. that pile up on our desk get left behind. Just get to them as life allows you to.

Well I’m glad tv news hasn’t made you cynical Kirk, you still have emotions and a heart. WKRC is a great station with a good team in place. But knowing we all have blind spots, I’m excited knowing some good people will benefit from your fresh eyes and input to make them even better.
Just pray the movers don’t break anything. And maybe this will help in leaving New Haven….you won’t have to wonder about LIN TV stock anymore. I still hold it wondering why it’s floundering in the $4s. Plus, who knows, you might find some important items you thought were missing when you start packing…old memos..old photos…heck you probably even saved your college term papers. No telling what’s waiting for the movers! Get out of town before it snows!

Please feel free to drop off any excess RCA 77DX mics, priceless reel to reels, or any other radio or television-iana in Atlanta en route to Cincinnati!

Dang, Kirk! AOPA is coming back to Hartford next September. I was truly looking forward to finally having that dinner we didn’t get to have when I was there three years ago. Now I’ll have to find some excuse to fly into Cincy!

I’m not sure I ever told you how much I appreciated your mentoring lo, those many years ago in The Land Of The Three. I have no doubt you’ll find others to bring along at Local 12.

Best of luck with the move.

Things happen for a reason, Kirk, and there are times we do not get to choose the timing. Just ride it out as best you can and eventually things will shake out.
